this president failed cutting the deficit in half. instead the deficit has grown a trillion dollars every year. it's failed promise after failed promise. so it's laughable for the president to go into the commonwealth of virginia where he's promised to raise our taxes and he's going to cut up to 200,000 of our defense and high-tech jobs, because of his total failure on a budget, and in paul ryan's case, he has a budget and the republicans have a budget that won't cut virginia's defense jobs, and obama has failed and so he goes a college town and starts telling these kids, hey, look at those faded posters of me on your walls in your parents' house, still living in your bedroom with your snoopy bed sheets. this president has failed young people, he has failed to create jobs and we have in mitt romney and paul ryan a turnaround team that is going to get serious and is going to get on the playing field, because they've been on the playing field of creating jobs all of their lives and they have a hopeful message, a future-oriented message

whatever that deal is is not actually going to meaningfully reduce our debt loads or the deficit. it will probably be enough to put the economy back in a recession because we're going to be taking more money out of american's pockets. but that gap is huge in this country. we have stopped being teathered to reality. we do not pay the full cost of government yet we have no sense of either side of the aisle. if we have $1.8 trillion spent by the federal government in 2000, maybe $3.8 trillion which we spend right now is a little bit too high of a number. as long as we have that enormous gap there's going to be this incredible pressure by the democrats. i can't believe that republicans aren't going to give thises class of people a free lunch and republicans going to say the same thing about democrats, meanwhile, those two levels are going to get nowhere near each other and we're going to continue all of this pathology that's really hurting the economy and hurting the long-term fiscal outlook of the kou country. >> let me bring in deborah wasserman schultz. always good to see you. >> y

a 21st century version of what clinton did for the economy, invest in the middle class, reduce our deficit, create millions of jobs and balancing the budget. that's what we need going forward and clinton made it clear that all the republicans are proposing is a u-turn back to policies that crashed the economy. >> thought one of the great lines last night was when he was talking about all the reasons why you should elect barack obama and he said, after that speech last night he was smart enough to marry michelle obama which of course got a big roar from the crowd. quite a few speeches were great. but money and the ads it buys speaks to a wider audience and you guys are losing the money race. how worried are you >> this is a big issue because, again, one of the reasons president clinton's speech went so long he did have to rebut all the misinformation that came out of the republican convention from romney and ryan and they are putting out that same information across the country with all the money they've got. so, first of all, it's important that we fight back and it's good president clinto
